Cali	get a sunless tanner with moisturizer in it but DON'T go to a tanning bed they cause 3 times the damage the sun can do without Sunscreen on but use at least 20 SPF, it doesn't keep the tan away it just keeps harmful light from the sun out. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Seeker	air brush tanning is beautiful. If you want the real thing I use a low spf on my shoulders face etc. anything that burns easy and an accelerator on the rest of me. I usually get a very nice golden tan. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

juststopit	start slow. Our you fair? I have red hair and freckles,but have managed to tan. use only pure and natural products-chemical sunscreens are very bad. Zinc is natural.I like kiehls products their products are physical blocks, not chemical (made in the lab) if you cant read the ingredients-dont use it.Sheseido and bare essentuals foundations are wonderful for the face-all makeup protects the face from sun-I ride horses and am out in the sun all the time-im 44 and have fair skin and no wrinkles-but my face is always quite tan! Be very careful of your eyes and lips. Wear sunglasses and lip Protectant (I do wear a cap most of the day as well.) For the body (dont kill me) but for just starting a tan I would suggest using a tanning bed called the Matrtix. It is great and you cannot burn wear eye and lip protection and start with 7 minutes. Work your way up to 10 minutes over a course of 3x a week for 2 weeks. Now you are ready for the real sun. Always use a good moisturizer - I like to use the old fashion Bain De Soliel orange gel. Slather it on and lay out for 1/2 hr on each side for a week or so-until your desired color is reached. Then go and get a spray on tan-you will need one 10 minute session of matrix per week and 2-3 days of real sun and one spray tan -trust me you will look great!!Drink alot of water and diligently apply moisturizer - take Vitamin A and dont tell your dermatologist!!dont take antibiotics-Accutane or st johns wort-they make your skin burn!!!!! Strange fact: When I took Prozac I always had the best tan-go figure?? Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

flygirl 5	I have lived on the lake practically my entire life. I am VERY fair skinned normally, but here lately I have noticed that using SPF 15-30 still keeps me from burning but I actually have a tan now after only two weeks of fishing/swimming on the lake. A few days consecutive and you will get a good base tan then just maintain by being outside...fishing, swimming, yard work, walking etc. It doesn't take much just 30 or so mins every other day or so! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

mamaof2	LAY IN THE TANNING BED-- 7 MIN. TO START AND WORK YOUR WAY UP TO 20 MIN LAY ABOUT A MONTH AND HALF THEN JUST LAY A COUPLE OF TIMES A WEEK TO MAINTAIN. ONLY LAY DURING THE SUMMER MONTHS DON'T LAY DURING THE WINTER TIME. THATS WHAT I DO/ Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

gymgrrl2000	i used to be a tanning-addict...tanning beds, the lake, the river etc. two years ago i was diagnosed with skin cancer, the bad kind! well lets just say its been quite a lesson. anyways please use a spray tan ..cancer isnt fun and it isnt pretty either. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

sweetchick21	use a step one base tanning lotion and only stay in the tanning bed for about 5-10 mins each day for about a week or two. once you notice that you havent burned yet, then you can begin staying in the tanning bed for 15-20 mins. when you have finished the bottle of step one, move on to a step two tanning lotion...step two will enhance your tan. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

asgapollo	11am-1pm 20min per side,per day. use Sunscreen of 30 or higher tan lines start on first day! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

sorceressofalchemy	Depending on your skin tone, figure out how long it is before you actually burn outside. If you have fair skin, I suggest being in the sun for only an hour at the most, turn over in 10 minute incriments, make sure you get every spot exposed, funny tan lines aren't cool. Use an spf around 8-20 if your not so fair skinned use higher if you are. I wouldn't go to a tanning salon, or use tanning spray(you might turn orange), people tend to notice a fake tan, or at least I can tell. If you have a secluded place to tan, I say go in the buff, if not put on your favorite two piece and relax listening to your favorite music! =) Happy Tanning! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Sunshine	Get some fake tanner. Tanning causes skin cancer. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

strunbike	If I wanted to be healthy, I'd go for the spray on tan. I'm not generally on the healthy road though, so I'd mow the lawn with light to no Sunscreen. Tan lines in 20 minutes. However, You might want to call a dermatologist, and ask them for the phone number of people who spent a lot of time tanning in the sun, and get their testimony of the pain of skin cancer and treatment. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Fish	Olay and Coppertone make GREAT sunless tanning products. Test it out on a small area of your skin first to make sure you get the colour you want, and you don't get a reaction. There is also something called the "Mystic Tan" that is done at a tanning salon that's a sunless tan that's sprayed on for an even look. Keep in mind that this can be a process. Not all sunless tanners are the same, and you usually get what you pay for. Find out what works with your skin and your taste in darkness. Good on you for not wanting to booth it!

MelBear	I used to be an avid tanner, I'd start in Feb at 4 min in a tanning bed b/c I am fair skinned and work my way up until I got to 20 minutes. By the time summer got around i was a nice golden glow and I hadn't burnt. Then my mom was diagnosed with skin cancer and it's hasn't been pretty. I quit tanning. I use Jergens Natural glow for fair skin, they have a face tanner that works REALLY well, also. It builds a gradual tan and doesn't streak like Coppertone tanners. Jergens works really well and give a very healthy tan glow. I urge anyone who thinks about tanning to please weigh the costs carefully. A few years of tan skin isn't worth the pain of fighting skin cancer. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

bokeatong	Go tanning at an Aztec Tanning Salon and tell them you want that... My GF won't go anywhere else. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
